Flooding Traps Drivers on Inland Kaikōura Road | Christchurch News

Two people are seriously injured after a two-car crash on the Inland Kaikōura Road, trapped by sudden flooding from Cribb Creek—emergency crews raced to the scene amid a bridge closure and worsening weather. With the Conway River also flooding State Highway One near ‘Siberia,’ authorities urge travelers to avoid the area or seek alternate routes like State Highway Seven. The closure is expected to last all day—so if you’re headed that way, reconsider your plans and stay safe. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
